    My senior Pidgelet

    She's been acting like a kitten lately, even playing, and she's 20 1/2 years old! I think now that the warm weather is finally here to stay (except for a couple of yukky cold, rainy days), she's feeling pretty good. I want to think positive but I recall that when Puddy felt so good, it was like the last flare up of the flame before the fire went out. It's been 8 months already since she was diagnosed w/hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and my vet said then that she could go at any time. Yet here she is! I'm not even sure why I'm posting this; I guess maybe to make myself feel better that she's old and every day that she's here w/me is a true gift. (That white spot on her belly is the sun's reflection.)

    Oh Mary, Pidglet is so beautiful! I love the picture of your sweetie all tucked in. S/he looks so happy and I'm sure is a real treasure. Would you give Pidglet lots of lovies from me? Thank you so much for sharing those wonderful pictures!!!!!

    Aw thanx. She's really a sweetie. In the pic where she's tucked in, she actually had a cold and was sniffling, so I wrapped her in her favorite blankie and propped her up on her favorite pillow and she got so cozy that she started to snore!
    Blessings,
    Mary

    What a beauty. She doesn't even look her age! That is incredible how long she has lived. Good work Mary, you are a great kitty mom.

    That is great that Pidgelet is doing so well at her age.
    Make sure you enjoy every day that you have with her.
    Give her a gentle kiss on the head from me.

    Milly noticed Coco Puff was hiding on the chair in the second photo so she says to give him a kiss on the head from her too.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    Oh believe me, he wasn't hiding. He was watching the birds. That boy has to be in the thick of it all. LOL But I'll give him the kiss for you. He's always giving me head bumpies when he wants attention.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Awwww, Pidgie Pie looks so comfy in both of the pictures! My Tabby, also 20 (She'll be 21 June 15! ) seems to be feeling much better these days also with the warmer weather. And those cooler and damp mornings make both of us move slower!

    So glad Pidgelet is doing well. When will she be 21????

    RIP sweet Tabitha, my heart kitty. You are loved and missed every day. 1988 - 2010
